Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the operation of a turbomachine, and more particularly to a system for extending the turndown range by heating the inlet-air.
  • Turbomachines such as gas turbines, aero-derivatives, or the like, commonly operate in a combined-cycle and/or cogeneration mode.
  • a heat recovery steam generator which generates steam, receives the exhaust-gas from the turbomachine; the steam then flows to a steam turbine that generates additional electricity.
  • a portion of the steam generated by the heat recovery steam generator is sent to a separate process requiring the steam.
  • Combined-cycle and cogeneration plants are rated to generate the maximum amount of energy (mechanical, electrical, etc) while operating at baseload.
  • baseload operation though desired by operators, is not always feasible.
  • the powerplant must either shutdown or operate at partload, where less than the maximum amount of energy is generated.
  • Turbomachines are typically required to maintain emissions compliance while generating power.
  • a turbomachine operating at partload may not maintain emissions compliance over the entire partload range, (from spinning reserve to near baseload).
  • Turndown range may be considered the loading range where the turbomachine maintains emissions compliance.
  • a broad turndown range allows operators to maintain emissions compliance, minimize fuel consumption, and avoid the thermal transients associated with shutting down the powerplant.
  • the system should reduce the fuel consumed by the turbomachine while operating at the partload range.
  • the system should not require significant changes to the turbomachine.
  • a system for extending a turndown range of a turbomachine operating at partload comprising: a turbomachine comprising a compressor, which receives an inlet-air; a combustion system; and a turbine section; wherein the turbomachine produces an exhaust-gas; a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), wherein the HRSG receives a portion of the exhaust-gas and produces steam; and at least one air preheater comprising at least one heat exchanging section, wherein the at least one air preheater heats the inlet-air before the inlet-air flows to the compressor; wherein a portion of the at least one heat exchanging section receives a fluid at a temperature allowing for heating of the inlet-air; and wherein the fluid flows from a source external to the turbomachine; and wherein heating the inlet-air reduces an output of the turbomachine and extends the turndown range.

  • the present invention may be applied to a wide variety of turbomachines including, but not limiting of, gas turbines, aero-derivative combustion turbines, and the like.
  • An embodiment of the present invention takes the form of an application and process that may heat the air entering a turbomachine (hereinafter “gas turbine”) to increase the turndown range.
  • An embodiment of the present invention has the technical effect of extending the turndown range by heating the air (hereinafter “inlet-air”) entering the compressor of the gas turbine. As described below, the inlet-air is heated by an energy source external to the gas turbine.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic illustrating an example of a system 100 for extending the turndown range of a gas turbine 105 in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a site comprising a gas turbine 105 : a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) 110 ; a stack 115 ; and an air preheater 155 .
  • the gas turbine 105 comprises an axial flow compressor 120 having a shaft 125 .
  • Inlet-air 130 enters the compressor 120 , is compressed and then discharged to a combustion system 135 , where a fuel 140 , Such as natural gas, is burned to provide high-energy combustion gases which drives the turbine section 145 .
  • a fuel 140 Such as natural gas
  • the energy of the hot gases is converted into work, some of which is used to drive the compressor 120 through the shaft 125 , with the remainder available for useful work to drive a load such as the generator, mechanical drive, or the like (none of which are illustrated).
  • the exhaust-gas 150 from the turbine section 145 may then flow to the HRSG 110 , which may transfer a portion of the exhaust-gas 150 energy into steam (not illustrated).
  • the combustion system 135 may ensure that the exhaust-gas 150 flowing out of the stack 115 meets the site emissions requirements.
  • certain partload operations may violate the site emissions requirements, which may require the shutdown of the gas turbine 105 .
  • An increase in the turndown range may avoid the need to shutdown the gas turbine 105 .
  • an extended turndown range allows for operating the gas turbine 105 at lower loads, while maintaining emissions compliance and consuming less fuel 140 .
  • the present invention extends the turndown range by heating the inlet-air 130 .
  • the output (electrical, mechanical, or the like) of a gas turbine 105 is governed by the amount of mass-flow entering the compressor 120 .
  • the mass-flow may be considered the product of the density and the volume-flow of the inlet-air 130 entering the compressor 120 .
  • the amount of volume-flow entering the compressor 120 may vary on the ambient temperature conditions and the angle of Variable Inlet Guide Vanes (IGVs), if present on the gas turbine 105 .
  • the IGV angle may determine the flow area at the inlet of the compressor 120 .
  • the IGV angle may be reduced to a minimum angle, limiting the amount of turndown. At the minimum IGV angle, a corresponding minimum volume-flow is drawn into the compressor 120 .
  • the heating of the inlet-air 130 decreases the density, allowing less dense inlet-air 130 to enter the compressor 120 .
  • the volume-flow entering the compressor 120 may remain constant, however the mass-flow decreases due to the decrease in density of the inlet-air 130 .
  • the output of the gas turbine 105 may be determined by the mass-flow entering the gas turbine 105 ; therefore less output is produced due to the heating of the inlet-air 130 , compared to not heating of the inlet-air 130 .
  • the heating of the inlet-air 130 also increases the temperature (hereinafter “compressor discharge temperature”) of the air 130 exiting the compressor 120 .
  • This heated inlet-air 130 then enters the combustion system 135 .
  • the heated air 130 aids in reaching the overall universal reference temperature (“firing temperature”) of the gas turbine 105 .
  • the heated inlet-air 130 allows the gas turbine 105 to consume less fuel 140 to obtain the firing temperature. Here, more fuel 140 would be consumed if unheated inlet-air 130 entered the compressor 120 .
  • the present invention incorporates at least one air preheater 155 , which may be installed upstream of the compressor 120 .
  • the air preheater 155 may be a heat exchanger, or the like.
  • the air preheater 155 may be sized to adequately heat the inlet-air 130 to a temperature that increases the turndown range.
  • the temperature of the unheated inlet-air 130 may be determined by the ambient conditions or the outlet temperature of any air conditioning system (not illustrated) located upstream of the air preheater 155 .
  • An embodiment of the present invention may increase the temperature of the inlet-air 130 to any temperature allowed for by the air preheater 155 .
  • the increase in temperature of the inlet-air 130 may be limited by at least one of several factors, such as but not limiting of, the geometrical limitations of the air preheater 155 ; a temperature that may violate a thermal, operational, or mechanical limitation; or the like.

Temperature: the temperature of the fluid used to increase the temperature of the inlet-air 130 (exhaust-gas 150 , water, steam, or the like), should be higher than the maximum desired temperature that the inlet-air 130 may be raised to by the air preheater 155 .
  • the maximum desired temperature might be used for sizing the air preheater 155 .
  • Flow flow of the fluid should be sufficient to supply the air preheater 155 , while maintaining sufficient flow for other demands from the HRSG 110 , or the like.
  • Fluid type the use of water, if available, as the fluid for increasing the temperature of the inlet-air 130 may be optimum, possibly requiring less mass-flow and a relatively smaller sized air preheater 155 .
  • Energy Source the fluid may derive from an energy source that may be utilized without negatively impacting the overall benefits of heating the inlet-air 130 .
  • the energy source may include, for example, but not limiting of, outlet from a condenser or fuel heater 175 ; packing flows, or the like; exhaust-gas 150 : discharge from the stack 115 ; any other energy source external to the bottoming cycle.
  • an operator of the site may use a portion of the exhaust-gas 150 flowing towards the condenser (not illustrated).
  • this energy may be considered ‘low value’ because the energy needed to create steam may have been already extracted.
  • another site may extract the exhaust-gas 150 from another area of the HRSG 110 .
